Christmas Card with NO Stamping!!

Good morning, Pink & Main fans!! Laurie here to share a card made using only die cuts. There is not one stitch of stamping on this project.  Die cutting is one of my favourite things to do.  I try to think of new ways to use basic dies to get a bit more use from them.  I combined some new and old products on todays card and had an absolute blast making it!!

I went through my stash of P&M dies and as soon as I came across the Scalloped Squares dies, the idea of making these into presents popped into my head!  I die cut three different sizes out of white cardstock with the intent of adding some Distress Ink for colour.  I decided to use some awesome patterned paper instead!

I used the Be Brave paper pad for the largest two presents and stuck with red cardstock for the smallest.  To decorate each present, I added narrow strips of cardstock to resemble ribbon. To add even more flair to the gifts, I used the new Winter Wreath Decor Dies. These were made to co-ordinate with the recently released Wreath Base Dies but all these dies can easily be used on their own!!

I love that ribbon but I have to admit, I’m a little obsessed with snowmen at the moment so he’s my favourite :).  I cut the Basket Cover Die out of white cardstock and layered it onto a white card base. Even though the gifts are cute, this card still has an elegant feel to it.

The “Joy” sentiment comes from the older Christmas Window Dies which co-ordinate with the Christmas Window Stamp Set. I added a bit of shimmer pen to a few of the decorations as well as the sentiment.  I also just had to put a few of the clear Glossy Dots from the Rainbow Glossy Dots pack (love these things!)

Thank you so much for stopping by this morning!

Until next time…

Laurie
